   Joyce gently knocked on magnolias bedroom door and whispered, "wake up sleepy head."

   Magnolia groaned rolling over digging her face into her pillow, "it's spring break let me sleep in." her voice was groggy.

Joyce nodded her head chuckling while walking towards the bed, "You did sleep in" she said as she slowly sat on the bed earning another groan from Magnolia "it's past twelve already."

   Magnolia shot up from bed her eyes wide, "What! Past twelve!"

   Her mother half shrugged "Yeah..." she looked down at her watch "it's twelve thirty—"

   Magnolia jumped out of bed urging her mother out her room for privacy. "I have to be at work at one!" She slammed the door, searching her dirty room for the blue and black uniform.

   "Well I made pancakes if you want some? They're set out on the table" her mother yelled through the door waiting for magnolia to respond.

   Magnolia swung the door open revealing her disheveled look. Her hair was still messy and her shirt was wrinkled and crooked on her body. "I don't have time for pancakes mom," she huffed patting her hair down. "I need to get to work before I'm late." she rushed past her mother towards the bathroom.

   Magnolia turned the bronze nob crashing into the heavy wooden door when it didn't push open. Jonathan groaned on the other side. He leaned forward spitting the toothpaste from his mouth. "Occupied!" He yelled before washing the excess toothpaste that dribbled down his chin.

Magnolia threw her head back groaning, "God, would you hurry up? I'm gonna be late for work!"

"Not my fault!" He grabbed the blue towel that hung on the shower curtain patting his face dry.

Magnolia banged her fists on the door harder this time. The image of Jonathans face replacing the door in her mind. Jonathan swung the door open dodging magnolias flying fist. "Would you calm down? It's all yours." He huffed walking past her.

She rushed into the bathroom quickly brushing her teeth and splashing water on her face. She ran out the bathroom grabbing a pancake from wills plate as he was settling in his chair to enjoy his brunch. "Hey!" He yelled reaching for magnolias arm, his fingers just barley grazing her skin.

   "Happy birthday loser" she called out to him as she slammed the door behind her. She sprinted down the neighborhood, passing family video where She quickly waved to Steve who was just barely flipping the closed sign to open. She zoomed down the street passing a group of kids playing hop scotch and nearly tripped over the small curb she always tends to forget about.

Magnolias burst straight into sunrise arcade startling Stacy. "Woah, Magnolia calm down," She said tossing her magazine to the side.

"Am I late? Oh god—" Magnolia panted, her lungs feeling just about ready to burst. "what time is it?"
